Set Flowplayer as vPIP's default flash player

 

vPIP (version 0.12m and later) supports Flowplayer.

 

If you have vPIP installed and have uploaded and linked to your flowplayer already (see screenshot), use these parameters to get it to work:

 

Parameter to open movie: config={videoFile: '<mediaurl>',autoPlay:'true', useNativeFullScreen: 'true', loop: 'false',initialScale: 'fit'}

Parameter Location: FlashVars

FlashVar parameters: autostart=true

 

 

If you have not ever installed vPIP and want flowplayer as your default do this:

 

Put them in /wp-content/plugins/vPIP directory (check and see, them might be there already. Prob not.)

 

Edit wp-content/plugins/vPIP/vPIP.php to make flowplayer the default flash player

 

change lines 1190 & 1191 from:

 

        $insert = "INSERT INTO " . $table_name . " (offerEmbedCode) " . "VALUES " .

         "(1)";

 

to:

 

        $insert = "INSERT INTO " . $table_name . " (useExtFlashPlayer, extFlashPlayer, movieParam, movieParamLoc, offerEmbedCode, embedCodeBtnTitle) " . "VALUES " .

 

          "(1,'/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/vPIP/flowplayer/FlowPlayer.swf', 'config={videoFile: \'<mediaurl>\', autoPlay:\'true\', useNativeFullScreen: \'true\', loop: \'false\', initialScale: \'fit\'}', 'FlashVars',1,'Share')";

 

 

Note: The above lines are long and may wrap, so I inserted a blank line between the lines of code so you can distinguish the two lines. Remove the blank line.

 

Note: The last item on the last line sets the default Embed Code button text to "Share" - this is where to change it if we go with something else.

 

Note: This modification will only work for people installing from scratch - it won't work for anyone already using vPIP.
